To all wh m'a a eaaamrj) .Be it known thatl JOSEPH J. CO Y, a citizen ofy the United. States, residing at Rochester, in the county] of Monroeand State of New York have invented new and useful ImprovementsinNon-Refillable Bottles, of

which the following is specifica tion. p p This invention relates to. abottle of the non-refillablegtype and the primary object of theinvention is to provide a receptacle of this character having a neckwhich comprises a unitary structure throughout its length and isprovided with means whereby a valve of novel construction adapted tocontrol the passage of liquid through the bot- .tle neck may beheld outof engagement with the seat therefore during the initial filling of thebottle.

With these and other objects in view the invention resides in the novelcombination and arrangement of parts which will be hereinafter describedand particularly In the drawing- Figure 1 is a view in side elevationpartly in section of a bottle the neck of which is constructed inaccordance with the invention.

Fig. 2 is a view similar to Fig. 1 with the bottle inverted. p

Fig. 3 is across sectionon the line 33 of Fig. 1.

Fig. i is a detail perspective View of the valve. 1

Like characters of reference denote the corresponding parts throughoutthe several views in the drawing.

Referring now to the drawing in detail the letter A designates a bottlewherein the neck 13 is constructed in accordance with the invention andcomprises a unitary structure throughout its length.

The neck B of the bottle has formed therein at diametrically oppositepoints, openings 5 whichare in line with an annular groove 6 in theinner wall of the bottle neck. A partition 7 extends transversely of thebottle neck above the groove 6 and is provided with a central opening 8which establishes communication between a pair of chambers 9 andllOformed in the bottleneck by the partition 7 The chamber 10 is dis posedbelow the partition 7 and gradually decreases in diameter from its upperto its lower end, so that the wall of the chamber valve 11 whichislocated in the chamber 10am controls the passage of 'fluidthrough theneck B.

When it is desired to pour the contents from the bottle A the bottle isinverted as shown in Fig. 2 in the drawing which causes the valve 11 toleave its seat and to be supported within the chamber 10 through theengagement of the disk 14 with the projections 15.

When the bottle is restored to its normal position the valve 11 iscaused bygravitv to engage its seat and prevent any liquid which mightbe poured within the chamber 9 entering the bottle body. p r l From theforegoing description taken in connection with the accompanying drawingsit is apparent that a non-refillable bot- 3 tle has been providedwherein provision has is claimed as new, is: 1.' A bottle having a valvein its neck adapted to control the passage offiuid there- Having thusdescribedthe'invention what through and means comprising a partof thebottle neck adapted to be engaged with said valve at :the time the,bottle wasfilled to support the valve in position in the bottle neck toallow liquid to pass through v the 'therethrough and pins in saidopenings adapted to be engaged with said valve at the time the bottlewas filled to hold said valve in position in the bottle neck to allowliquid to be poured through the neck into the bottle. w I v 3'. A bottlehaving a neck providedwith spaced openings therein, a valve in the bot-"tle-ne'ck to'control thepassage oi fluid therethrough having acircumferential'ly extendin'gf flange at one end thereof, pins closingthe openings in the bottle neck, and beveled ends on said pins: adaptedto be inserted beneath the flange on the valve to hold the same in:position within the neck to allow fluid to be passed through the neckand into the bottles 4. A bottle having an annular groove in the inn'erwall of its neck, a valve seat in the bottle neck below said groove, avalve in said neck engageahle with said seat having a circumferentiallyextending flange thereon extending within said groove, pins in said neckin line with said groove. and beveled ends on. said pins adapted to bepassed beneath the flange on said valve to hold valve out of engagementwith its seat during the filling of the bottle.

Intestimony whereof I affix my signature.
